Meet the MOMS behind FairfieldMoms!

Amber Smith and Jessica McCormack

We met each other in April 2017 at the New Moms Group run by Willows Pediatrics in Westport. Jessica had just had her first daughter, Emma, on March 25th and Amber had her second child, first daughter Kennedy, on March 31st. This group of new moms met every week and at lunch chatted about everything that we were going through together as first timers or as experienced Moms! We started a friendship pretty quick, Amber ordered a beer at our first lunch, and Jessica knew they’d be best friends! We live less then a mile from each other, we meet for walks weekly and we knew we’d be the perfect Moms to start this FairfieldMoms Chapter.

Amber grew up in Norwalk, CT, attended college at The University of Rhode Island, and moved to Fairfield in 2010. Right after she moved to Fairfield, she met her now husband Cliff (a native of Monroe, CT). Amber has previously worked in Sales, Marketing and Project Management and also has a passion for Interior Design. Her husband Cliff is a local realtor here in Fairfield, is on the Board of Assessment in Fairfield, and is the Founder of the Facebook group Dad’s of Fairfield and Weekend Warriors. They have a son Camden who is 3 and a half and a daughter Kennedy who is 22 months. They absolutely love living in Fairfield – walking to the beach, to town, enjoying a date night, and meeting new friends (like Jess & Scott)!

Jessica is originally from Long Island, and came to CT in 2000 to go to Southern in New Haven and has never looked back! She moved to Fairfield on the day Scott and her got engaged at Penfield Beach. They have been in Fairfield for over 5 years now with their now 22 month old daughter Emma and dog Laney and never plan on leaving! Jessica has previously worked in International Sales, Marketing, and Event Planning. She loves exercising, and being a part of any local race and outdoor activity. Her husband Scott originally from the New Haven area works in finance in Stamford and enjoys building and fixing anything he can think of. They love family walks to town, riding bikes to the beach, and eating at all the local restaurants.
